On Sunday 28th July The Lee Thompson Ska Orchestra will be playing The Secret Garden Festival near Huntingdon in addition to the July gigs already announced. Time to be confirmed but I heard some murmur that it would be 10.30 in the evening. We will be there anyway taking in all the joy that an English summer generally brings. See you there!

The Lee Thompson Ska Orchestra will be playing two gigs in July 2013. They are as follows:

06.07.13 Godiva Festival (this is a FREE festival), Coventry

20.07.13 Lambeth Country show, Brockwell Park (this is also a FREE day out), Nr Brixton, London.I believe our album The Benevolence of Sister Mary Igantius has entered the charts at No. 78. And No. 20 in the Indie Charts. This is thrilling news. I am thrilled.

Most people suspect that Fathers Day is some kind of cynical ploy on the part of commercial enterprises to extract hard earned cash from the diligent, hard working folk of the world. And who am I to differ?
We can announce that we are offering the critically acclaimed DVD The All New Beginners Guide To Boogie and Blues Piano at the splendid price of £15.00 (inc. p & p) - this is a saving of £7.50 from the RRP. To learn more, see clips and read press (and happy customer) reviews please follow this link. You too can play like Louis Vause and Seamus Beaghen. And so can your dads! . . . and mums! . . . and children!

Due to circumstances beyond our control, I am afraid we have had to postpone the release of Midnight in Havana until (probably) September. This is frustrating but hardly the end of the world (or so I tell myself on a daily basis). I have a file of all of those who requested a signed copy and I will post an exact release date as soon as it is finalised. The editing of the videos is nearly complete and all will be revealed soon. In the meantime relax in the gloom/sun/rain/wind with an appropriate cocktail.

I will be supporting The Near Jazz Experience at the Indo Bar in Whitechapel, East London tonight. If you have never seen the NJE, I can verify that it is indeed an 'experience': unique and entertaining. As for me well - you know - I poodle along. I will have my piano there so . . . let's see.
